Maurice Edu has called time on his spell at Stoke City and secured a move to the Philadelphia Union of Major League Soccer.

The US international midfielder saw little of the field after arriving at the Britannia and chose to move somewhere he could restart his professional career. Edu was on loan to the Union for a portion of last season and will now move back to the United States as the center piece of the Philadelphia midfield. The move and the regular playing time that is sure to follow should help Edu compete for a spot in the increasingly competitive US midfield with the Gold Cup coming up this summer and the Copa America and World Cup qualifying on the horizon after that.

Stoke City midfielder Maurice Edu and LA Galaxy attacker Landon Donovan were left off the US National Team roster announced today.

It was rumored that the all-time US scorer Landon Donovan and Stoke City midfielder Maurice Edu were at risk of being left off the roster for Brazil. Edu was certainly more at the edge of the roster than Donovan but neither is an insignificant absentee. If the US performs poorly then Jurgen Klinsmann will be open to massive criticism given Donovan's profile over the past three World Cup cycles. Thu, May 22, 2014 07:02:00 PM
